This book introduces law in the context of international business. The
basics of law are explored using a clear comparative methodology.
International and regional economic institutions are discussed, next to
the fundaments of private law. These include contract law, liability law,
labour law, company law, privacy law, intellectual property law and
international private law. The book goes beyond the usual focus on
Western legal systems and uses examples from all over the world to
provide students with comprehensive knowledge of business law. It is
set up rather broadly, so that it can be used by teachers throughout their
entire curriculum. Each chapter ends with a clearsummary. With its
colourful cases, this book is accessible and fun to read.
